Temporal Displacement is a page in which the date of noclipping is questioned in variability, regardless of universability.

Temporal Displacement

Temporal Displacement is a presumed act which takes place (unknowingly) during noclip. This displacement is a period in which time dilation is applied unto the subject; presumably, while noclipping, a subject may delay or progress a number of years, entirely unknowingly. During this period, it is believed that no time passes in the Frontrooms; they may lack this progression due to the dilation being imposed upon the subject whilst they are technically within the Backrooms. This grants a reasonable explanation for groups such as The Graces utilizing temporal anomalies; although they have existed within the Frontrooms since the 16th century, the Graces have nearly always spoken a far superior form of English. This adds further unto the existence of Temporal Displacement as a reversing point; it is very possible that the Graces' earlier counterparts were located within a prospective time period, yet the earliest of the Graces had managed to noclip during the year 1556. As noclipping is instant, this period may not function as hibernation does; instead, a variable dilation is applied unto the subject, causing past travel (pT) or future travel (fT.) The validity of Temporal Displacement has been verified, with no accurate rates or dynamics that could abuse this or possibly grant insight upon the demographics of those who it applies to (seemingly everyone, in one way or another).

Temporal Displacement does not offer a solution to Level 33's variant of the ontological paradox; although fT is possible in the period of displacement, no form of pT has been developed. Thus, the existence of literature within the level is entirely natural, as opposed to it being brought there. Nevertheless, the concept does offer a solution or other form of thought to the following:

  • Any and all information pertaining to time travel; where does this period take place, and is it accessible?
  • Time dilation's reach on the Backrooms may be entirely frozen, as opposed to much belief. if one returns to the Backrooms, they may return to the same time and date they left.
